Default Important question about returning iphone to apple store!

I posted earlier today because my iphone fell in the toilet last night. I need to know if I bring my iphone into an apple store, can I just say that the phone won't turn on for some reason and they will replace it, or are they going to open it while I am at the store to check and see if there is actually water damage. The phone looks perfectly new on the outside. Thanks and I appreciate any help there is for my problem. I am pretty depressed that my iphone is already broken after two weeks and that I may be out 640 bucks.

Might want to wait and let it dry internally if you attempt that.. no offense but I dont think anyone should actually tell you yes or no on these forums. Its your choice to try it .. But Id say wait till its fully dry the inside could have 1 little drop of water and if they did open it then your shit out of luck..

as long as its before the 14 day return policy yes . bring it in , pretty messed up to hand an apple guy your phone when its been in the toilet , discusting if you ask me . give it a shot though they will be able to replace it for you if they cant tell anythings wrong from looking at it.

Sure you can lie and say whatever you want. You can justify it, blah blah blah....Somehow I don't think this forum should be used as a group think tank to come up with ways to "get one" past apple. If you are looking for validation perhaps you should try another forum. Just do a google search for "con forum"

I would just tell Apple that the battery is in the toilet and it doesn't work now.

I actually took my 4gb in before my 14days and got an 8 g (was running out of room putting movies,etc on) During the exchange they actually made a call on it to make sure it was working. This was at an AT&T though so you may or may not be screwed
